Question 390: To ask the Minister for Enterprise, Trade and Employment if he will provide the Deputy with all the information to which his attention has been drawn as a result of the investigation leading to the High Court judgment of 14 June 2005 involving Gama Construction Limited. [21175/05]

As stated in the question, the judgment in this matter was received on 14 June 2005 and the document runs to 33 pages. The detail of this judgment is being studied by my legal advisers and officials at present. When that process is completed I will consider the next appropriate steps that are open to me. In the meantime I believe it is prudent not to engage in discussion of the content of the inspector's report.

While these matters are being considered I wish to assure the Deputy that work is continuing within the labour inspectorate with regard to employment rights compliance in the company concerned. It is my understanding also that other Departments or related offices are proceeding with their respective interactions with the company.
